Please join us Thursday, October 2 at 6:30 to discuss "No Time Like the Future: An Optimist Considers Mortality", a memoir by Canadian treasure, Michael J. Fox, about living with an early-onset Parkinson's diagnosis.

Copies of the book have come in for our regular book club members (you know who you are! ;) Please come to the library's front desk to pick up your copy. (And a big thanks to Melissa, as always, for organizing copies for everyone!)

You can listen to a frank and moving interview about this memoir on National Public Radio between author Michael J Fox and host Terry Gross: https://www.npr.org/2020/12/21/947962393/michael-j-fox-reflects-on-life-with-parkinsons-in-no-time-like-the-future
